2003-07-15 * Basic work on allowing derive expressions to build multiple paths.Eelco Dolstra1-49/+42
This is not entirely trivial since this introduces the possibility of mutual recursion. * Made normal forms self-contained. * Use unique ids, not content hashes, for content referencing.
2003-07-13 * Don't check for staleness by default.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
2003-07-11 * Fix a bug that caused Fix not to be deterministic (due to addToStoreEelco Dolstra1-7/+6
returning different paths if the hash of the path to be added was already available in the store under a different name).
2003-07-10 * The policy-free derivate sharing now *almost* works. :-) For anyEelco Dolstra1-3/+42
hash for which no local expansion is available, Nix can execute a `substitute' which should produce a path with such a hash. This is policy-free since Nix does not in any way specify how the substitute should work, i.e., it's an arbitrary (unnormalised) fstate expression. For example, `nix-pull' registers substitutes that fetch Nix archives from the network (through `wget') and unpack them, but any other method is possible as well. This is an improvement over the old Nix sharing scheme, which had a policy (fetching through `wget') built in. The sharing scheme doesn't work completely yet because successors from fstate rewriting have to be registered on the receiving side. Probably the whole successor stuff can be folded up into the substitute mechanism; this would be a nice simplification.
2003-07-10 * Get `nix-push' working again. It now uses Nix/Fix to create NixEelco Dolstra1-16/+35
archives (using the package in corepkgs/nar). * queryPathByHash -> expandHash, and it takes an argument specifying the target path (which may be empty). * Install the core Fix packages in $prefix/share/fix. TODO: bootstrap Nix and install Nix as a Fix package.
2003-07-09 * Outline of the new scheme for derivate distribution.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+5
2003-07-08 * Canonicalise paths so that Fix produces identical NixEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
expressions for identical inputs.
2003-07-08 * deletePath() now removes the path from the hash2paths mapping.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+22
2003-07-08 * Get rid of the `netsources' database.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+4
* Rename the `refs' database to `hash2paths'.
2003-07-07 * `--realise' -> `--install'.Eelco Dolstra1-3/+0
2003-07-07 * Make dbRefs a mapping from Hash to [Path].Eelco Dolstra1-23/+70
2003-07-07 * Refactoring on the file names.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+132
